Tumblr

When it comes to numbers of users alone, Tumblr easily defeats all the other options in this list. The only reason it ranks in the second half of the list is because Tumblr is not a site purely dedicated to writing. In fact, this platform is often used to post gifs, images, and videos. Nonetheless, lots of writings and relevant fiction postings still thrive here.

Most importantly, many Tumblr pieces often go viral - not just on the Tumblr platform itself, but also throughout other social media networks. There are also options for sharing and retweeting, which helps stories reach a larger audience demographic. That is why we deem Tumblr as a cultural hotspot worth exploring.

Another important thing is that Tumblr is heavily influenced by fandoms (similar to Fanfiction.net and AO3, which we have briefly explained about). Hence, if you have written a high-quality fanfiction story and applied the appropriate tags for it, your post is very likely to take off and enjoy immense exposure.
